Thunder in the City Movie Review 1937

Information and Film Reviews for Thunder in the City the Movie

Robinson is an intense American promoter in the sales game who is sent to London by his employers to learn a more subdued way of doing business. Instead, he meets a pair of down-on-their-luck artistocrats whose only asset is an apparently worthless Rhodesian mine. Robinson, however, comes up with a way to promote the mine and get enough capital together to make it profitable. Good satire with Robinson well cast. Robinson wasn't taken with the script in its original form and persuaded his friend, playwright Robert Sherwood, to re-write it.

Thunder in the City came out in 1937 and has a total running time of 85 minutes. Edward G. Robinson, Nigel Bruce, Ralph Richardson, and Constance Collier star in this comedy drama.
